@mclaincausey thanks for sharing this, was hoping they were going to tour after I saw them on the bill of that fest in Vegas.

@Matt my buddy met the band and told Yow about the first time he saw them in the mid 90s he caught a Yow boot to the head and hasn’t been the same since. Yow: “let’s do it again!”
Said Yow was as manic, unhinged, and awesome today as before.

just finished the first episode of this and it is nothing short of inspiring. What a beautiful story.
Having grown up in the Deep South, it boggles my mind that Stax happened the way it did amid the segregation of the fifties. Long story short, Jim Stewart wanted to make country records and his sister Estelle Axton took a huge risk investing early, mortgaging her home. They ultimately wound up locating their recording studio and record shop in a black neighborhood. Had they been racists as the mainstream white persona was in that time and place, they would have failed in their business and we wouldn’t have heard of them… but because they embraced the local black community and had an open mind about what kind of music they would produce, they were able to tap into an amazing local music scene replete with talent and change music forever.
The Muscle Shoals documentary tells a somewhat similar story and is also well worth a watch, but this first episode got me all emotional—it is that damn good.

@mclaincausey - fantastic stuff, such a heartwarming tale for all the music fans

Jalen Ngonda - Retro soul vibes, I really recommend giving his album a listen if you have yet to hear it. Perfect for those couple of minutes of sunshine a day we get in the UK right now!

After emergency surgery this weekend I'm stuck in bed at the hospital until at least sunday with only a phone and earbuds to keep me entertained and due to the nature (and potency) of the pain meds im on I can't really read for more than 5 or 10 minutes without getting dizzy.

@GraemeE Ok, here‘s some random stuff that comes to mind (it‘s 6:15 am here in Germany, I just got up):
Give the CHASER album Dreamers a listen, as well as the last two KRANG albums. Great skatepunk.
C.O.F.F.I.N. from Australia are great, as well as Amyl and the Sniffers.
Useless ID from Israel have not put out anything new recently, but try out their State is Burning album. Their singer, Yotam Ben Horin, does solo stuff, singer/songwriter style. If you dare to go there, listen to B-273, a song about his grandfather surviving the Holocaust.
DRAIN play great hardcore, the Codefendants a great crossover between punk and hip hop. The Kings of Nuthin were a band that blew me away. Miss them, their singer committed suicide over 10 years ago.Give my buddy Greg and his Rock‘n‘Roll Manifesto, a podcast on Real Punk Radio a listen - a cool variety of sometimes obscure stuff.
